i think note's processor should have the ability to play tegra games, am i right?
what should we do to be able to play them?
It's not a tegra device, so no. I've attempted to run several tegra only games using chainfire 3d, but it really just doesn't work. I've gotten the mass effect 3 wallpaper and dark meadow to work. Which is all limited to the Note 10.1, because I haven't been able to make ANYTHING work on my Galaxy S3. Just attempted Horn which is tegra 2 and 3, and it closes out before anything happens. If you want to play tegra only games, you'll want a tegra device. Or you can do what I do and make angry faces for nvidia causing a divide in the market, developers allowing it to happen by making tegra only games, and the consumers who happily support it. >.>
Some games like Dead Trigger can be hacked to enable Tegra3-only Ultra High graphics details with a simple file edit. I can confirm this works on my GN 10.1 and it's actually more stable and smoother than Tegra3 on my Nexus 7.

If I buy a Tegra version of a game will it work on the Optimus 3d?? OMAP4 is more powerful but is it compatible?
You can play the games on any modern android phone, Motorola Milestone onwards.
The mileage you get will vary with the processor your phone has.
The games should run better on the 3d due to the chips superior processing power. (Quadrant 2700ish)
Just grab the game from the usual Market, instead of the Tegra thing, to be on the safe side.
If i recall correctly, the tegra zone is just a showcase of the games that show off better gpus like the tegra. once you click download in the tegra zone app it takes you right to the market where anyone can get the same download without tegra zone. The tegra zone is just a way to get news and organized game info.
Has anyone noticed that there a new games popping up in the Tegra Zone that state they are built specifically for Tegra 3 devices?
Are we going to get left behind on the newest games because we have the Tegra 2?
Anyone have thoughts on this?
Considering the market for !iPad and that Tegera 3 isn't going to power that big a precentage of remaining Android devices in general, at worst get the "Normal" version instead of T3HD or w/e bull they are calling it now.

It probably says so the TF Prime can utilize it. Im guessing most games should be playable on both, but when it detects quad core, it will increase all the settings. But, im not sure. I know a few games are going to do this, I think Shadowgun.
yea seems that way. but would def be stupid for devs to not make games backward compatible for at least tegra 2 devices.
It will. Look at shadowgun and riptide gp

It would be stupid for devs not to make games backward compatible with `high definition` systems, as so many people typically seem to name their app.

games will probably be exclusive for tegra 3 for a month or so then they will release another version unless the game cannot run on slower hardware.
Games should have settings like PC games do. 1 version with graphical sliders. Why isn't this happening in all games?
There simply aren't enough Tegra 3 (or Tegra 2) devices to develop specifically for. Backwards compatibility would be wise. No game should be Tegra 3 only yet aside from a few tech demos.
Plus it would be a way to sell Tegra 3 devices too. Give me a new game with Tegra 3 support and let me enable all the goodies Tegra 3 supports and see how the game runs. This is why I used to purchase video cards all the time growing up. Run a new game at full glory because it looked pretty but ran at 19fps... whoops, gotta go get a new $500 video card to play a $49 game better.
If they separate the versions then non-Tegra users and Tegra 2 users never know what they are missing.
I also want an upgradable GPU IN MY PHONE!!!!
I agree. They should be all backward compatible. I also like the idea of being able to scale back the graphics to run on older devices and to tempt us to upgrade.
I want an upgradable gpu for my transformer! lol Don't think any of that is ever going to happen.
I saw that in the demo of Glow Ball that is in the Tegra Zone it says it was meant for Tegra 3 and only Tegra 3 processors were capable of handling the intense graphics. It even goes as far to show you want it looks like without the Tegra 3 (on non Tegra processor I believe) graphics which pretty much makes the game not worth it.
Blowfish Studios are making a Tegra 2 then Tegra 3 version of Siegecraft THD. The Tegra 3 version will be a pushed update to the previous version, so I'm told.
Somehow I remember reading somewhere that file picker = bad according to some important Android guy at Google. Which is probably while you get nothing out of their stuff but you get OI File Manager out of CyangonMod. I wouldn't be surprised if someone felt the same way about game settings, especially considering that people probably change phones about as fast as AAA+ games have short shelf lives (ala COD sh!t).
Unless you want to make several sales per device, THD and the rest is all bull.
Buying FooGame and installing it on e.g. an Optimus One should give you a modest ARMv6 friendly APK, lower end build with graphics tuned for common devices of it's era. Installing it on a TFP should give you a Tegera 3 optimised version of the APK. Got a Galaxy Nexus? Different APK than the Transformers, plus another "Generic" APK that is OK on any phone powerful enough to run it. If memory serves we either have this ability in the market or are getting it soon(tm).
That takes care of your old handset, your super tablet, and your new handset. Even better is the licensing option, uninstall from the Optimus One and install on the Galaxy Nexus or whatever you want out of the markets settings. Just like buying a new PC you can transfer the game over, but just like a console: it also would mean no matter what they play off, your less techy relatives that don't know crud about tech don't even have to figure out game settings. Ain't that awesome?
But oh wait, if we have to do that much work anyway for maximum market penetration, why not release FooGame, FooGame HD, FooGame T2HD, and FooGame T3HD? That way we have the option for charging customers by the processor type and bloat our stats to look good to share holders? --> follow the money.
If I'm wrong about the last three paragraphs someone correct me, other wise I think it's all bull. Some companies are really nice about it if you buy one version but in the end, there's no reason for it, except to try and make more $$$ if wanted.
If I'm probably right and it is mostly bull, how about hitting the thanks button to let me know I'm not an idiot?

Was wonder if most T3 games are available for the NOTE 10.1? What about Order and Choas?
I have not tried any tegra 3 games yet, probably will try some here soon, but I have done tegra 2 and they work fine using chainfire 3d. Had to get back into finally completing galaxy on fire 2. lol. Not to mention gta 3 tegra optimized and others.
They wont work unless u hack the apk or build.prop.
I hate that crap. I Tegra exclusive Bs.

Well I still have my Nexus 7 for tegra3 gaming although I do wish I cdl play them on this device also.
Ultra High graphics setting is normally only available with Tegra3 but there's a hack to enable it with root and free ES File Explorer app:

Dead Trigger runs smoother with ultra than my Tegra3 Nexus 7.
what do you have to change in the build.prop?
Hi, has anyone tried chainfire 3d on an ICS stock-based rom?

I tried it because I had used it with HC, but it caused some games, i.e. Angry Birds to not render properly. The developer's description on Playstore says that it is not compatible with HC / ICS, so I would only expect problems.
I always thought that Chainfire 3d was to make Tegra games/graphics work on Non-Tegra chips. I mean I used it on a Motorola XT720 and a Samsung Vibrant, neither of which is a Tegra chipped device.

Reading through the Chainfire thread, it looks like there was, at least, the possibility with certain plugins that are or may be written to be used with Chainfire 3d to allow Tegra Zone games to be played on non-Tegra devices or to use different shaders and such.
Thanks for posting, I wrote this thread because I wanted to have tegra 3 graphics on tegra 2. An example is riptide gp that has a lot of effects only
For tegra 3. I,ve found this Guide for Galaxy s3 but I think that it works with asus tf101. The develiper of chainfire 3d says that that it may work with ics/hc/jb but he doesn't know if it works.

I think what you'll find is that Tegra 3 graphics effects are called such because it takes Tegra 3 hardware to have the capability to display them and while an app could be written to run on either platform that there is just no way that Tegra 2 can display Tegra 3 specific effects because they just aren't supported in the hardware. It's like expecting Direct X 11 effects on Direct X 10 hardware, it just doesn't fly.
All that I saw in the first couple of pages of the devs thread was that his app MAY work on other devices, but he clearly states that it is NOT compatible with HC/ICS/JB ROMs.
for example I've enabled tegra 3 graphics on dead trigger and it works for Asus transformer tf101! So I want to try chainfire 3d to enable tegra 3 graphics on other games. I wanted to know if chainfire 3d worked with ics on asus tf101. It may works on ICS, for example it works on Galaxy s3 , that has ics. Finally I think I'll try chainfire 3d on my tablet, if it doesn't boot, I can go on apx mode and unbrick it.
Hey Guys,
I have a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0. I have purchased quite a few games and noticed that I can play them on my phone but they are not compatible or in the market for my tab. I use an HTC One V rooted with AOKP JB for my phone and can play Batman, Asphalt and others. I would really like to play the new Modern Combats that are out but they are not compatiable. Anyone know the reason why. I figured it becuase it doesn't have the Tegra processor and such, but I can overclock both CPU and GPU. I am totally willing to pay for these games and the games I have paid for would really like to play.
Is there any work around. Possibly tricking the market in thinking my Tab is something else to be able to download them?
Thanks
I was wondering the same thing.
some people might reply saying should of got tablet with the tegra processor
but those tablet dont have some things that this tablet has.
Do not know why these are not compatible with our tab.but most incompatible game when sideloaded works fine without any lag.
search YouTube for "modern tab on galaxy tab on 2" it works good on our tab.
